The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

223  Blade Dimension (III)

"Hellblazer Burst!"

The flames covering the Elder glowed with a red light as if blood was being used as fuel. He then flashed forward like a meteorite toward the invisible force field, ready to blast a hole through it.

Fear appeared in the hearts of the soldiers and students on the mountain when they saw that. Even the dumbest of them understood that the clash between the Elder and the force field would generate a rain of fire that would fall on them.

A crazy light appeared in the Elder's eyes as the idea of obtaining the treasure on the other side of the portal appeared in his mind. Just as he was about to clash with the force field, a figure appeared in front of him and grabbed his neck.

"¡BOOM!"

The clash between the Elder and the unknown figure generated a blast of flames, but giant streams of water emerged from the body of the first and instantly extinguished them.

Shock and fear appeared in the Elder's heart when the hand tightened around his neck. He saw the blue light in the eyes of the other person, and any idea of fighting back vanished from his mind.

The man who managed to stop the Hellblazer Elder was a legendary figure in the soldiers' hearts and someone scions were always warned to stay away.

Zarak stared at the Hellblazer Elder with coldness. He put more and more power on his left hand, suffocating the middle-aged man before using his right fist to punch this one right in the chest.

"AWW!"

The Elder unleashed a cry of pain as blood and pieces of his internal organs emerged from his mouth, and things were far from over since Zarak was not satisfied with a single blow.

"¡Boom!" "¡Boom!" "¡Boom!"

Every blow of Zarak on the Elder had so much power that shock waves spread across the sky. After the fifth blow and seeing how the middle-aged man was about to fall unconscious, he unleashed one final punch with all his strength. Zarak's punch sent the Elder flying away, making him dive thousands of meters before crashing into the ground.

Soldiers and students saw how the Elder generated a massive crater upon impact and did not know whether he was alive or not, but they did not care either. Even the scions of the Hellblazer University did not care since the Elder's actions almost put their life in danger.

Just as they wondered what would happen next, they saw an incredibly powerful blue Ego Wave emerge from Zarak and clash against the invisible force field covering Blade Mountain.

Unlike the Hellblazer Elder, who acted rashly and unleashed more power than he could control, Zarak displayed absolute dominion over his Ego Wave. The blue Ego Wave spread across the force field, trying to find a way in, and when it found there wasn't one, Zarak extended his palm and began to squeeze.

The Ego Wave mimicked its master and squeezed around the force field, trying to break it. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"RUMBLE!"

The force field trembled under the Ego Wave's pressure but remained firm despite Zarak exerting enough power to crush a small mountain. Zarak retracted his Ego Wave after a few seconds since it was clear that the force field protecting the Blade Mountain had more than enough power to stop him.

A figure covered in shadows appeared next to Zarak, glancing at the portal with a profound gaze.

"So this is the reason you say we should remain nearby." Zarak glanced at Jonathan before looking back at the portal in the sky. Although his cultivation was higher, Jonathan was an Essence Wave Cultivator and mastered the Law of Shadows, which allowed this one to perceive disturbance in space.

"I felt the presence of a strong dimensional force for a moment during our battle against Bloodless #4. Still, I never expected that it would be something like this."

Seeing such a fantastic phenomenon in the sky filled Jonathan's heart with awe, and part of him wanted to enter it, but he was not as foolish as the Hellblazer Elder.

"It might be due to the presence of youths full of great potential or just coincidence. In any case, it rejects people like us. I will send the information to the Imperial Lightning Fort. What will you do?"

Zarak would have wanted to silence any information about the portal in the sky, but that was not possible, and he knew that powerful individuals would come to this place very soon. He was strong, but the portal above Blade Mountain would incite greed in people whose power stood way above the Wave King Rank.

Jonathan stared at the portal for a few seconds before softly shaking his head. "The sphere of influence from the Aegon Family does not spread into Blade Mountain. I will inform my superior when I am back."

Zarak turned toward Jonathan, and a grateful light appeared in his eyes as he softly nodded. The fewer powerful organizations meddled in this place; the easier it would be for the Imperial Lightning Fort to establish control. "That brat was the first to enter. Considering Cain's will and talent, he may reach the highest stage of that dimension. That place holds power that vastly surpasses Wave Kings. Do you think he will be fine?"

Zarak could not help but adopt a solemn expression when he heard that. Cain was extremely talented, but the dangers inside that dimension would push him to the limit, and if he ascended high enough, the sun's heat could melt his wings and make him fall into oblivion.

"There is no point in wasting my time thinking about what could happen. I can only prepare for the time when he emerges from the dimension."

Jonathan understood the last part of Zarak's words. If Cain managed to obtain a great fortune inside that dimension, many powerhouses could try and take it away from him.

"I will you and that boy fortune. I will be leaving now. It was a pleasure fighting by your side."

Jonathan clasped his hands and performed a small bow toward Zarak before transforming into streams of shadows that faded in the sky.

Zarak also clasped his hands at the fading shadows before adopting a meditative position in the sky and looking at the portal one last time before closing his eyes.

After crossing the portal, Cain found himself in a dark dimension full of shining dots of light in the distance. It was like a starry dark sky, and he was at the center of it.

Just as he wondered what he was supposed to do, an immense pain assaulted him as streams of blood, Astral Wave, and even Ego Wave emerged from inside his body and began to amass in front of him.

"¡AHHH!"

Cain shouted as the agony was unbearable, and if it was not for his willpower, he might have lost consciousness.

More and more of those three essences emerged from Cain, generating a bigger and bigger cocoon in front of him. The process lasted for around twenty seconds.

Cain fell to the ground and was having difficulty breathing as that unbearable pain was still clear in his mind. Luckily, the next second, the dots of light began to unleash streams of shining energy that flooded his body and the large blood cocoon in front of him.

A sense of shock and awe appeared in Cain's eyes when he noticed how that shining light took less than three minutes to completely heal his body and regenerate all that the cocoon had taken from him. 'This shining light! It is stronger and more pure than any other energy I have used before.'

Cain did not lose this opportunity and adopted a meditative position, trying to mobilize that shining light to cultivate. The shining light posed no resistance, and Cain felt how it nurtured his flesh and blood, strengthened his meridians, and tempered his Astral Wave.

As the starry light improved his cultivation and foundation, Cain focused on the blood cocoon that wantonly devoured it. Although whatever was inside was certainly essential for this place, there was nothing he could do about it other than wait.

Cian did not hesitate before activating Embryonic Breathing in order to push his cultivation speed to a new level. He stood like that for over an hour before opening his eyes since the starry light faded.

"Thump!"

Just as the starry sky stopped nurturing him, a heartbeat emerged from the blood cocoon, and it was the first of many.

"Thump!"

"Thump!"

"Thump!"

Cain noticed as the heartbeats grew faster and more powerful, as cracks emerged on the blood cocoon.

It did not take long for the blood cocoon to shatter to pieces, and what appeared in front of Cain was a sword, more specifically, a machete.

The weapon was not very long or wide and had a red handle with a thin chain.

Cain stared at the weapon for a moment and felt as if it was part of him, which taking into consideration its component, it was.
